Red River County Public Library is asking all citizens, young and old, to decorate our Christmas tree!

Bring any ornament that you would like to display, homemade or store bought. We would love it if you would share your treasures with us and the community!

If you have something that you would like to decorate the library with, we would be more than happy to display it!

AttentionAllYouth:

The Library wants pictures and/or ornaments created by students!! You can make it as simple or in-depth as you like and use any medium (i.e. crayons, paint, charcoal, pencils, etc..) and we display them for all to enjoy!

The Red River County Public Library will host five Texas authors, including Reavis Wortham, Cindy Rice Holster, Martha Sue Stroud, Harold “Pete” Norris, and Cyndi Lord. Book signings start at 9 a.m. in the library.

The Clarksville Rotary Club holds a fish fry cookout behind the Library Thrift Shop, the Hospital Auxiliary from East Texas Medical Center Clarksville is chairing the bake shop on the courthouse grounds and the children’s corner will provide entertainment for children of all ages. The children’s corner will be on the south side of the Edward Jones offices offering games, a bouncy house and other activities.

Several food booths will provide tasting offerings from hamburgers to turkey legs to hot tamales, just to name a few.

The Clarksville Rotary Club will also sponsor the 9th annual Red River County Duck Race down Delaware Creek at 3 p.m. Prizes will be awarded and ducks will be available for purchase at the Bazaar for $5 each or five for $20. Prizes of $500 for 1st, $250 for 2nd, and $100 for 3rd will be awarded.

Many Clarksville High School class reunions are slated during the bazaar including the CHS Golden Oldie Reunion for all classes before to 1963.
